As time passes, I seem to change my mind on what I want to do for the table numbers. At first Mr. Flamingo had suggested having vintage movie posters, but I soon realized that they could be very complicated and hard to understand. First off, if the guests don’t know the movie specifically, they will need to search to find the actual title on the poster. In those years there was type all over the place - the actors’ names were more prominent than the actual movie title - so I think it may be hard for the guests to find their table. Another important point is that the majority of the guests are French and all the movie titles are in English.
I really liked the imagery of the 1933 movie The Songs of Songs. Not only is the imagery beautiful, but it’s vintage and wedding perfect… and it’s actually a love story too.
Here is the original poster :
Then I thought why not use that poster for all the table numbers? That way the same message will be on all the posters, which means less confusion and we’ll actually use numbers. So I used my Illustrator and Photoshop skills and tried to re-create this poster to suit our wedding.
This was the criteria I needed on the poster:
This is what I came up with… (click to enlarge)

I really like the outcome of the poster, I think it’s perfect. But I haven’t shown Mr. Flamingo yet, and I’m afraid he won’t like it. He really wanted to go more towards the glamour route but I think that this poster is kinda glamour - no?
What do you think?
